Sun = 3° 15’ Cancer – 9° 56’ Cancer
Moon = Aquarius – Taurus
Our bright, illuminating Sun travels through the first decan of Cancer throughout the week, Saturn stations retrograde in Pisces, and a quarter Moon in Aries rounds out the last couple of days. This week calls for radical self-awareness through a process of shedding, much like the relief one gets after taking off an itchy, wool sweater, so too does a snake find instant contentment once its old dead skin falls off. There is, of course one of the most potent ways to explore self-awareness and it is through the way in which we treat and think about other people. The second decan of Cancer connects us to the 2 of Cups in the tarot which depicts two people sharing cups in collaboration and the spirit of giving and receiving. The cups suite, associated with the element of water, parallels the nature of human relationships. Our own divinity is reflected back to us in the cup and to give the gift of one’s divinity to another is the union that the 2 of Cups represents. Cheers to the spirit of life!
A quarter moon in Aries triggers the cardinal signs: Libra, Aries, Capricorn and Cancer into upright action and awareness of personal expansion. The opportunity to heal through the quarter moon in Aries can lead to a greater understanding of how the personality is constructed. Through seeking independence from the body’s various mood altering conditions i.e. hormonal fluctuations, gut bacterial influence and brain chemistry; we become slightly closer to the freedom of true self hood and individuation. Learning how the mood fluctuates our personalities opens a whole world of self-analysis that cannot be mistaken as nature’s firm grip on our human development.
Saturn stations retrograde in Pisces at 19° 26’ this week, the process of restructuring what has already been established commences! Since Saturn is in Pisces, what is being ‘reconstructed’ is our subconscious understanding of the mind along with our personal spiritual beliefs. This will be a thought provoking time for artists, especially those in the film industry and music.
Monday 24th
Strong beliefs and opinions fly around all day with the Moon and Jupiter housing a communal moodboard. Mars in Taurus takes a long time to anger, however the Moon in Aquarius hits a trigger point activating very tangible feelings of frustration and irritation. Through connecting with others and sharing your desires for a greater way to be a part of the community, the tension that Mars brings can be used for productive networking and coordinating.

Unexpected and shocking moments which open a portal for healing occurs earlier in the day (PDT). The Moon is leading us to feel incredibly uncomfortable within our bodies, discomfort is a natural process for shedding and rebirthing.

Thursday 27th
We get to see the results of our efforts from yesterday when Venus was throwing us in a fertility frenzy, the chaos of potential is sprouting! Just in time for the quarter Moon in Aries tomorrow that will enact energy which is useful for motivating and inspiring. But today, we can find wisdom in even the mundane acts of service to oneself and others.

Friday 28th
Quarter moon in Aries today, it is time to take action on those goals and plans that you had set into motion throughout the week. The Quarter Moon lights a fire under our butts so take ultimate advantage of this burst of energy while it is here because once it flame fizzles out, it will take with it the inspiration that is so needed to ignite motivation. Some of us may find that we are actually being forced to make a move in one direction or another.

Saturday 29th
Today can be a little frustrating unless there is a directed focus towards healing, learning or growing as the Moon moves into conjunction with Chiron. An awareness/seed is planted regarding how to heal and what needs to be healed. Today can be very informative so would be a good idea to have a pen and paper ready for those random strokes of genius. Saturn stations retrograde so don’t be too surprised if there aren’t some big plans for restructuring to surface in the coming weeks.
Moon square Venus, conjunct Chiron, square Mercury, Saturn stations retrograde, Mercury sextile Uranus.
